Life in the shadows of Leeds Prison where residents keep their curtains closed
HM Prison Leeds has been located on Gloucester Terrace in Armley since 1847. It’s the second highest category of a prison in the UK, Category B which means prisoners don’t require maximum security but escape needs to be made very difficult.
Shauni said: “It’s noisier here, there’s usually people around causing bother. We usually hear people shouting into the prison, like just ‘hello’. Kim Walker, 63, has lived there for ten years and went to the local school when she was a young child. The mother-of-three says prisoner’s family or friends sometimes go as far as setting off fireworks outside the prison walls.
“For a start, we have a lot of security going around. When the prisoners are exercising, they send up drones and I do sometimes think there’s cameras we can’t even see. I do feel very safe. It’s just nice.” “We get the odd shouting. The only other thing I can think of is travellers coming here for a funeral on the grass. It was such a mess, we all had to clear up afterwards.”
